Hi there girls
Back again with a top up of news.
Up date - BC in 2002 with liver mets and then bone mets plus lung mets in 2008.
I wrote last year to say that I was fed up with ALL the treatments as nothing was working and it was hard to hear ( sorry not working lets try something else every 3 months ) and had decided to go with NO CHEMO. Well I was free for 9 months and had a wow of a time. Then in July the specialist phoned me to say that my markers were up to 9000 and that if I wanted to see 2010 I’d have to re try chemio - plus I will admit that I am having a lot of pain from the liver. So yes I have changed my mind agin but it was with a lot of thought again.
Why – because I am in pain and they say the chemio might help and also because my daughter is expecting our first grand child and I need to be there for her. Also I am now game for a last try having had 9 months off as it has reboosted my energy.
I have been told that I have only 3 chemios left to try at the moment as I have already had a lot ( plus a lot while I had leaukeamia in 2004 .).
I have a heart scan on Monday to see if the old heart is up to it and then I hear from the specilist on Wed and start the chemio on Thurs but not sure which one so will let you know next week.
Wish me luck as I still am not sure that cemio is right for me but will give it one last go.
Thinking of you all as always
luv jANE
